4 cardinals mentioned in a top 50 list

[cornfed cards fan]

29. Larry Fitzgerald, WR, Cardinals: He came into his own last year and expect him to get better as he matures. He has big-time skills.

39. Edgerrin James, RB, Cardinals: The Cardinals hope he has some good years left, but how many is the question. He's still a good back, but not nearly as good as some think.

47. Anquan Boldin, WR, Cardinals: Playing opposite Fitzgerald, Boldin gives the Cardinals the best one-two receiving duo in the league. He has two seasons over 100 catches in his first three. That's special.

49. Adrian Wilson, S, Cardinals: If he were on any other team, he'd be considered among the top defensive players. If the Cardinals win this year, he'll get his due.

Not bad. But i think Boldin never gets his due from the press.

I saw that list and was pretty miffed at Boldin being so low as well.

Congrats to the Cards for aquiring talent. Next comes winning!

I'm no TO aplogist, but he belongs in the top 5.

I'll start the inevitable flame war...

Boldin > Fitzgerald


There, I said it.

Ha ha. When it is all said and done, Fitz will be remembered as the better of the two on the stat sheet. Boldin will be remembered as the better of the two in the hearts of Cardinals fans.

I think you're right, Vince. If Boldin's knees hold up, then he is going to be a great one. Tremendous yards after catch.

I love Larry, but no player has done more to change the swagger of the team that Anquan.

29 Fitzgerald
39 Edge
47 Boldin
49 Wilson


I don't see how Fitz can be ahead of Edge. Edge has accomplished so much more than Fitz.

Maybe for a one year stretch....maybe. He's just way too much ego and bravado to do a team any good.

I think if you were absolutely on the verge of the SB....and you needed a WR to top it off, give TO a try. But nothing in the league destroys chemistry like Terrell Cancer.

I'll start the real debate, when Fitz/Q/TO are all healthy....

1)Boldin
1a) Fitz
3) TO

I think this is a rating of what are you doing for me right now.

I think FITZ is going to put up crazy, sick numbers this year. If Edge keeps the bracket off of Fitz in the EZ...I think we are talking Jerry Rice 3rd year numbers here. 65/1078/22.

 

[BigDavis75]

I could make a better list easily.

Where is Deangelo Hall, arguably the best CB in the game.

No Hines Ward, WTF?

No Joey Porter?

The second best DT in the game, Henderson, is too low.

And so on and so on. I'm miffed.

 

[PortlandCardFan]

How can Q and Fitz be on the list and Warner not? Is the ball gonna magically appear in their hands?


Ah... injury and then Leinart learning curve.

Nevermind

 

[Redsz]

Not even a mention of Karlos Dansby or Bertrand Berry? When will these people learn?

 

[Shane]

Ha ha. When it is all said and done, Fitz will be remembered as the better of the two on the stat sheet. Boldin will be remembered as the better of the two in the hearts of Cardinals fans.

I wouldnt bet on that either.

The list is not objective, but doesn't claim to be it either. This is Prisco's personal list.

Do you think Edge would be ranked this low, if he still played for the Colts?

And what's up with the OTs. Jones at #7 is justified because he's simply in a league of his own right now, but Ogden and Pace??? Both has slipped. Ogden is only average at this stage of his career and Pace shouldn't be that high. Glenn and Samuels are both better than Ogden.

On the positive list. No Roy Williams! He's IMO the most overrated player in the league. AND much worse is that he's annually stealing Wilson's Pro Bowl spot.

There, I said it.

Boldin/Fitz are different, yet =...

They compliment eachother perfectly

Yahoo top 50 fantasy list is much more realistic IMO:

6. Edge
23. Boldin
24. Fitzgerald
On the bubble: Warner

I agree. Of course this is with regards to the Offense only.
